[Graphia half-letterhead designed by Georg Trump]

Graphia was a major commercial printing, paper processing, and packaging enterprise based in Bielefeld, Germany. It opened in 1929 and closed in 2021. Between the beginning and the end (but a lot closer to the beginning) they had Georg Trump design this half-letterhead, listing the services they provided (like letterpress, lithography, and offset printing) and some of their business specifics like their phone number, telegraph address, postal checking account, and bank account info. Made for quick notes in response to quick notes and set and printed with care. A masterclass in composing type to serve a purpose and stay out of the way while still looking fresh almost 100 years later.
